Using telehealth to support the psychosocial needs of palliative care and cancer patients

Crynodeb o'r effaith

Aberystwyth’s Centre for Excellence in Rural Health Research has informed the development of a new telehealth service delivering support to palliative care patients in Mid-West Wales. This is significant for the region as it supports the Health Board’s response to the recommendations set out on the Mid Wales Healthcare Study (Longley et al., 2014). Impact is evidenced by changes to Hywel Dda’s palliative care strategy ensuring the ongoing delivery of telehealth services; personal testimonials from patients evidencing improvement in wellbeing and daily functioning; and evidence of creating opportunities for increased public and professional engagement and debate
